After Margolis mentioned his encounter with Magobiyane in a Facebook post, which was eventually shared more than 37,000 times, he says Magobiyane has since been offered a job.

"Since we met, Dan has been placed permanently at the Haven Night Shelter in Greenpoint. He'll be there for three to six months. They're helping him to transition from life on the street to a more active role. He has also been offered a permanent job with a company called Cape Skip. They're very committed to upskilling him."
